With intolerance and bigotry toward Christians on the rise, most Baby Jesus dolls are being stolen from church manger scenes around the country. As a result, some churches are turning to technology to track down the thieves.
BrickHouse Security has offered for the last five Christmas to provide churches GPS trackers for their Baby Jesus free of charge. The program, called “Saving Jesus”, is designed to track down and allow police to prosecute those who damage or steal the Baby Jesus from a nativity scene.
“We have been providing free GPS trackers to churches and temples for the past 5 years because there has been a rash of stolen nativity scenes and stolen religious artifacts,” Todd Morris of BrickHouse Security told Fox News.
The GPS device is the size of a cigarette lighter and does not activate unless someone picks up the doll and starts to move.
The program even sends text alerts to church staff or law enforcement officials if the Baby Jesus is in motion.
